SSD Sponsors Party Time Tuesdays

Good morning everyone!  I'm here to bring you another challenge that Sassy Studio Designs is sponsoring.  This week we are sponsoring an Anything Goes challenge over at Party Time Tuesdays.  Woo hoo!  Those are my favorite kinds of challenges. =D

I really wanted to play with the adorable Japan Honey, available in the store.  I just think she's so cute!  Plus I just got these awesome Asian inspired papers that I was dying to use.  (It's the new Graphic 45 Bird Song collection.)

Ok, ready to play along?  Head over to the challenge blogs for inspiration from their DTs.  Want some more fabulous Sassy inspiration?  Head on over to the Sassy Studio Designs blog to see what the rest of the Sponsorship team has created.  They are fabulous, you don't want to miss them!

Good morning, sunshines, and welcome to a brand new week!  I hope you're all having a fabulous weekend.  Well, it's time for more Sassy Studio Design sponsorships.  Yay!!  This week we are sponsoring Crafting When We Can with the theme of "Countries" and The Corrosive Challenge with "Know When to Fold 'Em".  What exactly do those mean, you ask?  Well, for the Countries theme, you pick a country and use that country's flag's colors for your card.  For the Fold 'Em, the Corrosive DT want to see cards with more than one fold.

Now, I know that Halloween is coming up this Wednesday, and trust me...no one is more excited than I am. However, I decided to switch gears a little and get another Christmas card done.

I chose Russia as my country so I could use the adorable Russia Honey, available in the store, to make this simple gate-fold card.  You know, it's funny but I never realized how many countries use the colors red, white and blue for their flag until I tried to do this challenge. It seems like every country I thought about using had the same colors!  =D

SSD October Release

Hi, and welcome to the Sassy Studio Designs Halloween Blog Hop!  You should have arrived here from the lovely Ruza's blog.  Wasn't her project wonderful?  If you've just stumbled upon this post, make sure to head back to the start at the SSD Blog so you don't miss out on anything!  The whole blog hop order is listed there in case you get lost.

Well, as you probably know by now, the talented Lindsay of Sassy Studio Designs is releasing some very fabulous Halloween images this weekend!  To celebrate, we are having a blog hop and challenge.  What's the challenge?  Halloween bingo!  Oh, I just love bingo, don't you?  Here's the fabulous bingo board created by our very own Kim.

For my card, I chose to use the first line.  I had a fantastic die from Spellbinders with a fence and ravens that I couldn't wait to use.

I got to play with the fabulous Grim Reaper.  Isn't she spooky?  I LOVE her tattered dress.

Now you're almost finished with the hop!  Your final stop today is back at the SSD Blog.  I hope you remembered to leave a comment on each DT member's blog today...you never know which blog comment will win a new SSD image!  Don't forget to come back tomorrow for Day 2 of the hop!  Also, I really hope you'll be playing along with our Halloween Bingo challenge.  Plus, we're having a chat tonight on the SSD Party Blog at 6 pm PST (9pm EST).  Come by and tell us what you thought of the hop!

Thanks for stopping by!

SSD Sponsors Brown Sugar Challenges

Good morning my lovelies!  Happy Friday to you!  I do hope you have plans for a fun weekend.  Tonight we're throwing a surprise birthday party for a friend, then on Sunday DH and I are rearranging our furniture to fit the baby stuff in.  Yay!!  Are you going to make time to craft this weekend?

Well, why don't I help you with that?  Today starts the Sassy Studio Designs sponsorship of the Brown Sugar Challenge Blog.  Woo  hoo!  What's the challenge?  Being October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, it is...

Breast Cancer Awareness ATCs

I just love ATC's, don't you?  They seem like they should be so simple because they're so small...but it's almost harder for me! lol

Here's my ATC using the lovely Miranda Sassy from our Sassy in the City release.  I just thought she would be perfect with her showing off her...assets.  =D  She is currently available in the store.

Want to play along?  Head over to the Brown Sugar challenge blog for inspiration from their DTs.  Want some more fabulous Sassy inspiration?  Head on over to the Sassy Studio Designs blog to see what the rest of the Sponsorship team has created.

Don't forget, SSD is also sponsoring Link Up for Pink, which runs until 10/14/12.  That means you still have a couple of days left to enter, and there are some AWESOME prizes!  Plus, in case you don't have any Breast Cancer Awareness images, Lindsay was kind enough to share a freebie with you on THIS post.  She's lovely, so make sure to grab her while you can!

Also, there's a release going on this weekend.  It's going to be SPOOKtacular!  You do NOT want to miss it.  Come by the SSD blog for the hop on Saturday and Sunday (yes, there will be two days of hopping to make it more manageable) and stop by the Party Chat Blog on Saturday at 6pm PST (that's 8pm Central, 9pm Eastern) to join in a fun chat with the DT members and other Sassy fans!

SSD Sponsors Tuesday Alchemy and Tuesday Morning Sketches

Good morning, lovelies! Well, I'm back on the Sponsorship team for Sassy Studio Designs for the next couple of months.  Yay!  I am having SO much fun.  Today we have two, count them TWO, challenges we are sponsoring!  Woo hoo!

The first one is Tuesday Alchemy, with an Anything Goes challenge!

The second is Tuesday Morning Sketches, with this fabulous sketch:

Super cute, right?  They also have a twist...the letter "E".

I used the lovely Sassy Leia from last month's Halloween release.  (She is available at the Sassy Studio Designs store.)  I thought she would be just perfect with one of the sentiments from Freebie Friday on Papercraft Planet a couple of weeks ago.  Voila, a Breast Cancer awareness card!  =D  As many of you know, this is one of the main causes I support and raise funds for. Luckily, no one in my life so far has had to fight this horrible disease.  So when I make my BCA cards, I donate them to my friend's mom who does frequent card drives (and other fundraisers) for BCA.

As for the letter "E" twist, I heard about it a little late.  But let's go with EDGING (the gold and the stickles) and ELECTRIC (laser guns are electric, right? lol), and ELSEWHERE (because Princess Leia is from a galaxy far, far away...or is that Star Trek?).

Want to play along?  Head over to the challenge blogs for inspiration from their DTs.  Want some more fabulous Sassy inspiration?  Head on over to the Sassy Studio Designs blog to see what the rest of the Sponsorship team has created.  They are fabulous, you don't want to miss them!  Plus, say hello to some of the new Sassy girls!
